1 Verder het die HERE met Moses gespreek en gesê:

2 Spreek met die kinders van Israel en sê: As iemand in swakheid sondig teen een van alle gebooie van die HERE en een van die dinge wat nie gedoen mag word nie, tog doen

3 as die gesalfde priester sondig, sodat die volk daardeur skuldig word, moet hy vir die sonde wat hy gedoen het, 'n jong bul sonder gebrek aan die HERE as sondoffer bring;

4 en hy moet die bul bring na die ingang van die tent van samekoms, voor die aangesig van die HERE, en moet sy hand op die kop van die bul lê en die bul slag voor die aangesig van die HERE.

5 Dan moet die gesalfde priester van die bloed van die bul neem en dit na die tent van samekoms bring,

6 en die priester moet sy vinger in die bloed steek en van die bloed sewe maal sprinkel voor die aangesig van die HERE, voor die voorhangsel van die heiligdom.

7 Ook moet die priester van die bloed stryk aan die horings van die altaar van die reukwerk van speserye, wat in die tent van samekoms is, voor die aangesig van die HERE; en hy moet al die orige bloed van die bul uitgiet aan die onderkant van die brandofferaltaar wat by die ingang van die tent van samekoms is;

8 en al die vet van die sondofferbul moet hy van hom aflig, die vet wat oor die binnegoed lê, en al die vet wat aan die binnegoed is,

9 en die twee niere en die vet daarop wat aan die lendene is, en die lap aan die lewer by die niere moet hy dit wegneem

10 soos dit van die dankofferbul afgelig word en die priester moet dit aan die brand steek op die brandofferaltaar.

11 Maar die vel van die bul en al sy vleis met die kop en die pote en die binnegoed en die mis

12 die hele bul moet hy buitekant die laer uitbring op 'n rein plek waar die as uitgegooi word, en hy moet hom op hout met vuur verbrand; op die plek waar die as uitgegooi word, moet hy verbrand word.

13 En as die hele vergadering van Israel hulle misgaan sonder dat die vergadering hom daarvan bewus is; en hulle enigiets doen wat die HERE verbied het, en skuldig word;

14 en die sonde wat hulle so gedoen het, bekend word, moet die vergadering 'n jong bul as sondoffer laat aankom en hom voor die tent van samekoms bring,

15 en die oudstes van die vergadering moet hulle hande op die kop van die bul lê voor die aangesig van die HERE, en die bul moet voor die aangesig van die HERE geslag word.

16 Dan moet die gesalfde priester van die bloed van die bul in die tent van samekoms bring,

17 en die priester moet sy vinger in die bloed steek en sewe maal voor die aangesig van die HERE, voor die voorhangsel sprinkel.

18 En hy moet van die bloed stryk aan die horings van die altaar wat in die tent van samekoms voor die aangesig van die HERE is. Dan moet hy al die orige bloed uitgiet aan die onderkant van die brandofferaltaar wat by die ingang van die tent van samekoms is;

19 en hy moet al die vet van hom aflig en op die altaar aan die brand steek

20 en met die bul doen soos hy met die sondofferbul gedoen het. So moet hy met hom maak; en die priester moet vir hulle versoening doen, en dit sal hulle vergewe word.

21 Daarna moet hy die bul buitekant die laer uitbring en hom verbrand soos hy die eerste bul verbrand het; dit is 'n sondoffer van die vergadering.

22 As 'n owerste sondig en in swakheid enigiets doen wat die HERE sy God verbied het, en hy skuldig word;

23 of as sy sonde wat hy so gedoen het, aan hom bekend word, moet hy as sy offer bring 'n bok sonder gebrek, 'n ram;

24 en hy moet sy hand op die kop van die bok lê en hom slag op die plek waar hulle die brandoffer voor die aangesig van die HERE slag; dit is 'n sondoffer.

25 Dan moet die priester van die bloed van die sondoffer met sy vinger neem en dit aan die horings van die brandofferaltaar stryk; maar die orige bloed moet hy aan die onderkant van die brandofferaltaar uitgiet.

26 Hy moet ook al die vet op die altaar aan die brand steek soos die vet van die dankoffer. So moet die priester dan vir hom versoening doen weens sy sonde, en dit sal hom vergewe word.

27 En as iemand van die volk van die land in swakheid sondig, omdat hy enigiets doen wat die HERE verbied het, en hy skuldig word;

28 of as sy sonde wat hy gedoen het, aan hom bekend word, dan moet hy as sy offer bring 'n bok sonder gebrek, 'n ooi, vir die sonde wat hy gedoen het;

29 en hy moet sy hand op die kop van die sondoffer lê en die sondoffer slag op die plek van die brandoffer.

30 Dan moet die priester van haar bloed met sy vinger neem en dit aan die horings van die brandofferaltaar stryk; maar al die orige bloed moet hy aan die onderkant van die altaar uitgiet;

31 en al die vet moet hy wegneem soos die vet van die dankoffer af weggeneem is, en die priester moet dit op die altaar aan die brand steek as lieflike geur vir die HERE. So moet die priester dan vir hom versoening doen, en dit sal hom vergewe word.

32 Maar ingeval hy 'n skaaplam as sy sondoffer bring, moet dit 'n ooi wees sonder gebrek wat hy bring;

33 en hy moet sy hand op die kop van die sondoffer lê en dit as sondoffer slag op die plek waar hulle die brandoffer slag.

34 Dan moet die priester van die bloed van die sondoffer met sy vinger neem en dit aan die horings van die brandofferaltaar stryk, maar al die orige bloed moet hy aan die onderkant van die altaar uitgiet;

35 en al die vet moet hy wegneem soos die vet van die dankofferlam weggeneem word, en die priester moet dit op die altaar oor die vuuroffers van die HERE aan die brand steek. So moet die priester dan vir hom versoening doen vir die sonde wat hy gedoen het, en dit sal hom vergewe word.

1 And the Lord said to Moses,

2 Say to the children of Israel: These are the offerings of anyone who does wrong through error, doing any of the things which by the Lord's order are not to be done:

3 If the chief priest by doing wrong becomes a cause of sin to the people, then let him give to the Lord for the sin which he has done, an ox, without any mark, for a sin-offering.

4 And he is to take the ox to the door of the Tent of meeting before the Lord; and put his hand on its head and put it to death before the Lord.

5 And the chief priest is to take some of its blood and take it to the Tent of meeting;

6 And the priest is to put his finger in the blood, shaking drops of it before the Lord seven times, in front of the veil of the holy place.

7 And the priest is to put some of the blood on the horns of the altar on which perfume is burned before the Lord in the Tent of meeting, draining out all the rest of the blood of the ox at the base of the altar of burned offering which is at the door of the Tent of meeting.

8 And he is to take away all the fat of the ox of the sin-offering; the fat covering the inside parts and all the fat of the inside parts,

9 And the two kidneys, with the fat on them, which is by the top part of the legs, and the fat joining the liver and the kidneys, he is to take away,

10 As it is taken from the ox of the peace-offering; and it is to be burned by the priest on the altar of burned offerings.

11 And the skin of the ox and all its flesh, with its head and its legs and its inside parts and its waste,

12 All the ox, he is to take away outside the circle of the tents into a clean place where the burned waste is put, and there it is to be burned on wood with fire.

13 And if all the people of Israel do wrong, without anyone's knowledge; if they have done any of the things which by the Lord's order are not to be done, causing sin to come on them;

14 When the sin which they have done comes to light, then let all the people give an ox for a sin-offering, and take it before the Tent of meeting.

15 And let the chiefs of the people put their hands on its head before the Lord, and put the ox to death before the Lord.

16 And the priest is to take some of its blood to the Tent of meeting;

17 And put his finger in the blood, shaking drops of the blood seven times before the Lord in front of the veil.

18 And he is to put some of the blood on the horns of the altar which is before the Lord in the Tent of meeting; and all the rest of the blood is to be drained out at the base of the altar of burned offering at the door of the Tent of meeting.

19 And he is to take off all its fat, burning it on the altar.

20 Let him do with the ox as he did with the ox of the sin-offering; and the priest will take away their sin and they will have forgiveness.

21 Then let the ox be taken away outside the tent-circle, that it may be burned as the other ox was burned; it is the sin-offering for all the people.

22 If a ruler does wrong, and in error does any of the things which, by the order of the Lord his God, are not to be done, causing sin to come on him;

23 When the sin which he has done is made clear to him, let him give for his offering a goat, a male without any mark.

24 And he is to put his hand on the head of the goat and put it to death in the place where they put to death the burned offering before the Lord: it is a sin-offering.

25 And the priest is to take some of the blood of the offering with his finger and put it on the horns of the altar of burned offering, draining out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar of burned offering.

26 And all the fat of it is to be burned on the altar like the fat of the peace-offering; and the priest will take away his sin and he will have forgiveness.

27 And if any one of the common people does wrong in error, doing any of the things which the Lord has given orders are not to be done, causing sin to come on him;

28 When the sin which he has done is made clear to him, then he is to give for his offering a goat, a female without any mark, for the sin which he has done.

29 And he is to put his hand on the head of the sin-offering and put it to death in the place where they put to death the burned offering.

30 And the priest is to take some of the blood with his finger, and put it on the horns of the altar of burned offering, and all the rest of its blood is to be drained out at the base of the altar.

31 And let all its fat be taken away, as the fat is taken away from the peace-offerings, and let it be burned on the altar by the priest for a sweet smell to the Lord; and the priest will take away his sin and he will have forgiveness.

32 And if he gives a lamb as his sin-offering, let it be a female without any mark;

33 And he is to put his hand on the head of the offering and put it to death for a sin-offering in the place where they put to death the burned offering.

34 And the priest is to take some of the blood of the offering with his finger and put it on the horns of the altar of burned offering, and all the rest of the blood is to be drained out at the base of the altar;

35 And let him take away all its fat, as the fat is taken away from the lamb of the peace-offerings; and let it be burned by the priest on the altar among the offerings made by fire to the Lord: and the priest will take away his sin and he will have forgiveness.
